A similar opinion was disclosed to a RIA Novosti correspondent by the investing company Region. However, in their opinion, the acquirement by Russia the status of the country with a market economy "will not have an essential impact on the situation on the Russian stock market". This decision was already expected by the stock market and was implemented in the stock prices.
